                                      Good ambience and friendly staff/owner. Love all the food especially the Mafaldine Al Cavolo Nero, a very simple pasta dish that suits my liking. Surprisingly the Stracciatella is also nice as a starter. Can’t skip the tiramisu as well, that creaminess and not that sweet flavour.

                                      A tantalising array of food created with love from the freshest produce. The dining experience in an intimate, cosy setting was flawless. The open kitchen is all part of the experience and, although we weren’t lucky enough to spot Nonna, at Scala Lane we felt like we were in Italy. Do yourself a favour, gather your family or friends and don’t miss it.

                                      Amazing new dinner spot. Pasta was cooked to perfection & the risotto was heavenly….I didn’t want it to end. Atmosphere and service was 2nd to none. Will definitely be returning.
